George and Lennie have a relationship that no one in this time has heard of; they live, they work, and they help each other. George has grown fond of Lennie mainly because Lennie needs him to take care of him, without George Lennie would panic and probably be killed.
This is a beautiful novel showing how hard the Great Depression was on people that lived like George and Lennie, even to find a job was hard enough and to get paid a fair amount for the work they did was unheard of. But they managed to scrape by with the force that has kept America from falling to its knees many times over, hope and dreams.
They both have a dream to have they're own farm one day, to live off the fat of the land, and to lay back and relax knowing that they are in control of their destiny which is a huge factor compared to where they are.
John Steinbeck did a great job in portraying the life of two traveling men in the early depression.
